“We recently moved to the area and I was so afraid we wouldn’t find a sitter that we liked and trusted as much as we did our sitter back home but no more worries! Rachel and her family took wonderful care of our big baby while we were gone on vacation and we’ve had to make several adjustments with times and haven’t had any problems. I was worried we wouldn’t make it home due to the snowstorm but Rachel assured me Cheeto would be safe, warm and loved until we made it home and was even ok with a late night pickup when we were finally home. Thank you so much Rachel!”

“Susan provided the perfect environment for my senior beagle. She and her husband are retired so they’re able to be with your pet 24 /7 . Bess received lots of ear and belly rubs and love sleeping by their fireplace.There are no small children running around and she has a nice fenced in backyard. my beagle thoroughly enjoyed herself and I don’t think she really wanted to come home.”
“Nora is great. Kia is an older dog and set in her ways. Nora was so patient with her and took top notch care of her. I got daily updates. Kia wouldn’t eat for the first couple of days and Nora found a solution to get her to eat. Your dog is in good hands with Nora.”
“We were so pleased with the care Rubal and her family provided to willow. They were so attentive and provided plenty of updates. Willow was obviously very happy in the videos and photos throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Rubal's AMAZING services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring individual. It was a truly wonderful experience for boTH!”

“Victoria is very nice and I really appreciated that she met me and our pup prior to the date of the stay. She sent me plenty of photos and I could tell that our pup was made to feel like she was "home". No complaints at all about the services we received!”
“Super understanding when our elderly boy was just too anxious to be away from us for a night. Debbie’s home is spacious, with lots of yard space for exercise. Their sweet and lovable pup Chesney was ready to greet and befriend both of us upon arrival. With her experience and sensitivity, your pet will be safe and well-cared for in Debbie’s capable hands.”

“Great communication! They gave us an update and pictures every other day or so on how our pup was doing. Our dog seemed very comfortable staying with them. Happy customer!”
“We left our two pups with Nichole for almost 3 weeks when we needed to go on a business trip. It was the longest we have ever left our pups with anyone and we were nervous. We set up a greet and meet and were able to meet Nichole and see her home and set up. She made us feel comfortable and showed how knowledgeable she was about frenchies and pup care overall. Our two dogs had a great time. Nichole provided pictures and videos and kept us updated on how Marshie and Dixie were doing the whole time. Very happy overall with the experience and will definitely look at having our pups stay with them again.”
“Celsei was amazing and wonderful and took great care of my two doggies on short notice for a weekend. They were in the comfort of a home with a yard to play in rather than being in a kennel which I know contributed to the great time they had. When I brought them home, they acted like they had been on their own vacation and were relaxed, yet energetic to be home. Thank you Celsei for taking such good care of them.”
“Tracy is absolutely wonderful and we love knowing that our pup, CC, is very well cared for when we are away. CC gets tons of play time and she is snuggled too. We love all of the pictures and videos of her running and having fun. Thank you to Tracy for being such a great caretaker!”

“Cole was put in a situation that could have ended badly for all involved. The neighbors let their dog roam knowing it’s history as an aggressive dog. Cole was quick thinking and handled the situation very well. His communication and quick action saved the day. I can’t say enough about Cole and his professionalism and communication”

“Our dogs loved their time at Kelli's! She is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Kelli provided photos and updates during the day and is really communicative. Her fenced-in back yard provides a great opportunity for the dogs to romp around. Our dogs were worn out from playing and having such a good time! I would definitely love to use Kelli again.”
“We were so thankful to find Celsei to keep our dog while we were in IU on a visit. She sent us pics of our girl during the day and our dog came home tired and happy. She even made some new friends that she could play with there! We will definitely book again if we have our dog with us on our next Bloomington visit!”
“"Perfect" is the one word I would use for my doggie daycare interaction with Catherine! This was Maves first anything without one of use being with her. She is a highly active 7 month old puppy. Catherine was so great with her. I really felt my pupper was safe and being well taken care of. Updates of photos and text during the day and answered immediately when I wanted an additional update. Then when we got there for her second day, Mave was SUPER excited to be there again! That is when I knew this was the “Perfect” place for her to stay on daytrips or any other time I need. I will request Catherine each time I am south of Indy for vacations or one day getaway. Thank you Catherine, you made an enjoyable week even better!”
“Once again, you guys go above and beyond for Rocky! Playing in the pool, taking care of his health and always making sure he has so much fun! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter! 5/5 stars every single time!”
About: You're not just hiring another pet sitter; you're entrusting your beloved dog to someone whose life has been filled with canine companionship from day one. Growing up with dogs wasn't just about having pets; it was a hands-on education in understanding their nuanced body language, anticipating their needs, and fostering genuine connections built on trust and affection. This lifelong immersion has instilled in me an intuitive understanding that goes beyond standard training, allowing me to provide a level of care that feels less like a service and more like an extension of the loving home your dog already knows. I am currently a stay at home mom so will have plenty of time for your pets , love doing outdoor activities with the dogs also love cuddling and loving on all the animals I will take your dog out on leash every couple hours unless they need more, I have a chiweenie and German shepherd that loves having friends to play with and my children are amazing with animals as well.
About: I have cared for many animals growing up, my mom and I were both adopters of all kinds of strays. But I have been loving and caring for my very own sweet girl for 9 years! We adopted our baby from the humane society at 3 months old and worked through potty training, leash training, and command training. Please allow your pet to be my outlet so I stop asking my husband for another dog 😬 I am a homeschool momma so I am home or outside adventuring most of the day. I have a nice sized yard, however, it is not fenced in so if your fur baby likes to run off from time to time we may not be a good fit. I have 3 small kiddos (and myself) who would love nothing more than to snuggle on your pup! And our Vega girl enjoys running and playing with other doggos so your pup will get plenty of love and exercise! We do have 11 chickens who stay in their coop (we do let them free range from time to time, but they will be kept in their coop while you pup stays with us). However, due to having small children and chicks we will require a meet and greet before your precious pup comes to stay with us.
“Augie had a wonderful time with Mary Jane and family. This was the first time we left Augie with anyone; Mary Jane made us feel reassured and calm. We had a terrific get away and Augie had a great day! Thank you, Janine & Bruce”
“Sarah watches or boards our dog all the time, we love her! She sends pics often which I appreciate, and I know she’s in good hands when she’s in her care! Phoenix is a lap dog and I get lots of pics of her wrapped up in a blanket in hers or her husbands laps!”
“Tracy is awesome. This was my first time leaving my fur baby and she took such good care of her and reassured me along the way too. I’ll definitely be using her again”
“Fantastic family,love that they love dogs. Diffenately they love to go back with the family. My babies having fun as well as we having fun too.. thank you very much for taking care of them Nicole and the fam. The first time for them is great.????”
About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of dogs and cats of all ages since I was a young child. Every pet I’ve ever had the pleasure of loving has been in my life from the time they came home until they passed. My mom taught me at a young age that a pet was a lifelong relationship and responsibility and I took that very seriously! I believe that God put me on this planet to care for animals and be a mom. My children are grown and out of the house now so I have 4 dogs (Midas-9, Atlas-6, Echo-5 and Zuko-3.5) and 2 kitties (Boston-12 and Angel 1.5) and I would really like to help you care for your fur babies when you can’t do it. I promise to follow your instructions so your fur babies will get the best experience possible! I am in phlebotomy and patient care in my career but I plan to be a part of a rescue or sanctuary when I retire. I will continue to volunteer at the shelter as often as possible until then. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets! I am available for house sitting on weekends and some days I would be available to do daycare at my home. I have a fenced in yard and 4 small to medium sized dogs of my own that love to socialize! I have a fully fenced in backyard and 4 social dogs to keep your dog company, as well as a cat that enjoys being involved in the activities inside.
About: I own a King Charles Cavalier and a German Shepherd currently! I grew up on a farm in southern Indiana with multiple foster and adopted animals! My mother instilled a serious love and adoration for people and their favorite pets. I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible. Please feel free to message or call whenever needed and I am more then happy to accommodate ANYTHING you or your sweet pet needs. I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.
About: Pets have always been center stage in my life. Currently I share my home with three cats and a granddog who likes to visit and go for walks with me. My love and appreciation for animals has sparked my desire to be a pet sitter. I began my pet sitting journey by caring for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family. I gained experience providing for pets needing oral medication, accommodating frightened and lonely animals, and behaving in a manner which gained the trust of my new furry friends. I am a retired teacher and have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening schedules. I am also available for overnight stays for both pet and house sitting. I am able to meet all expectations while caring for your pet at home. I have a large country property to provide stimulating outdoor time for overnight furry guests. I will take all precautions needed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your furry companions,
About: My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow! Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs. While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!
“Kamela was fantastic with my puppy! Her and her family accepted my baby as their own and I never had to doubt her safety or well being. Will definitely be using in the future and 100% recommended ☺️”
About: As a retired teacher, I’ve spent my life nurturing, encouraging, and caring for others, and that same patience and dedication extend to every dog I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where your furry friend can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm companion nearby, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. With years of experience building trust and creating positive relationships, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pet is receiving plenty of attention, affection, and gentle care. I look forward to treating your dog like one of my own! 🐾❤️ I am available to watch your dog for you if you need a short-term doggy daycare option or someone reliable to care for your furry family member while you’re on vacation for several days. I have a fenced-in yard and two fur babies to keep your fur baby company while you’re away. We will have regular yard playtime and potty breaks, every 2-4 hours during the day. I am also happy to come walk your dog for you if you prefer that.
About: I am a loving trustworthy pet sitter with 10 years experience watching family, friends, and neighbors animals. My experience in training, exercise, play time, boarding, and spoiling set me apart and provide your animals the best care possible while you are away! I watch dogs full time. I am able to devote any range of attention and care that your animal needs. I can come to you or your pet can come to me. I have a loving home with lots of toys to fit your animals needs. I keep the animals inside and prefer to let them be free and comfortable. I have found that using a blanket, shirt, or bed from home usually helps when boarding that they can cuddle with, or I can use a crate if your animal is more comfortable that way. I have the ability to separate animals if your animal requires one on one love :) I do this full time and just started an in home kennel! I can do home visits, doggy daycare, and boarding at any time or day that fits your schedule! I have home on 3 acres out in the country with 2 fenced in areas, along with an outdoor inclosed kennel. I take animals on walks and we love spending time outside when the weather permits! I always keep them on a leash when we’re outside for the safety of the animals.
“As always, Hank had the best time at Emily’s house today.. She’s THE BEST sitter in town and treats Hank as if he was part of the family!! Thank you SOO much Emily! 🌟🏆”
About: Hi, I’m Karla! I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love caring for them. I have years of experience looking after dogs and cats for friends, family, and through pet-sitting platforms. I’ve raised and cared for pets of all ages from playful puppies to senior dogs and I’ve personally had a German Shepherd and a pit mix, along with cats, chickens, and even hamsters growing up. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters and have fostered pets, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all temperaments and needs. Whether it’s taking your dog to the park for some playtime or a relaxing walk for fresh air, I’m happy to provide loving and attentive care. I also have a reliable car for transportation if needed, and I’m happy to set up a meet-and-greet at a local park to make sure we’re a great fit. I am currently a stay at home mom so I’m pretty much home all day! So I have plenty of time to be with your pet I can crate your dog if needed. I always foster pets so I have a system on how the arrangement will go since I do have a cat, I have 2 sore bedrooms and a backyard, so plenty of room!
About: I offer dog daycare, grooming, and overnight boarding, and I even have a certified dog trainer onsite to support puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and pups who need extra guidance. With years of hands-on experience, I personalize every stay to your dog’s age, energy level, and personality. My facility is conveniently located off 135 and Stop 11 and features a one acre fenced in yard with four separate play zones for safe outdoor fun. I also have a large indoor play area for rainy or cold days, so your dog gets exercise and enrichment no matter the weather. And here’s what truly makes us different: I don’t believe in nickel-and-diming pet parents. • No extra fees for administering medications • No extra charge for treats throughout the day (with your permission) • No add-on fees for snuggles, playtime, or extra potty breaks • Everything your dog needs is included—love, attention, fun, and care Your dog will enjoy a safe, structured, and loving environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. My goal is simple: happy dogs, peace of mind for you, and an experience that goes above and beyond traditional boarding. Pet care is at the center of my daily routine. Monday–Friday from 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., I run a full doggy daycare program where your pup is supervised and engaged all day long. Boarding is available 7 days a week, and all boarding dogs enjoy access to daycare at no extra charge. Your dog’s care, comfort, and safety are built into every part of our daily schedule. Safety and trust come first. My facility is designed to give every dog a secure, enriching environment. We have multiple fenced yards that allow us to separate dogs by size, temperament, and play style to ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident. An experienced team member supervises the dogs at all times, and we closely monitor behavior, energy levels, and group dynamics throughout the day. Indoors, we have a clean, climate-controlled play area for rest, enrichment, and safe play during bad weather. Every pup is cared for with the same attention, structure, and love we give our own dogs, because their well-being is our top priority.

About: I've never worked for a company like Rover but I've watched many people's pets, mainly friends of the family. My household has two dogs and 3 cats, two of the cats are kittens. I like small dogs but big dogs are my absolute favorite. I personally have a great dane who is a dork and I love him so much. We used to bread great danes so I can work well with puppies. :) I currently work part time, I work most mornings till about 10am and am free after that. I can watch animals on weekend afternoons or evenings. I would like a set schedule with someone if that works out. I have a big back yard and a very loving great dane to keep company. I also have a pin for my dog if for some reason they don't get along. Also a cat poll in my house for those who need cats watched.
About: I love animals and have cared for cats and dogs as well as had my own for much of my life. I will treat them like family, play with them, and care for them. I can walk them, brush them, and administer medication as needed. During the week, I can work from home as needed to assist with pet care. I am available on weekends to board and play with your pet as well. I have a large apartment with an unfenced yard but am able to take your pet out as needed. Your pet will have plenty of room inside and I live close to paths and grass areas to play outside as well.
About: My pet care experience includes a variety of different animals such as, dogs, cats, a turtle, hamster, mouse, bunny, and fish! I have always had a strong connection with animals and caring for them in general. The passion I have for taking care of all animals is very strong and I believe they are the purest creatures we have. If you chose me to watch your dogs or cats I promise you they will feel safe in this home and loved while you are gone. Your pet will be in good and loving hands. I also believe that animals have distinct personalities and emotions and those emotions should be paid attention to. Animals have needs just like humans have needs. Us humans have to tend to them! I feed the cats and dog every morning around 7 or 8. I let the dog out for about an hour or so before I leave for work and, clean the cats litter boxes (yes, they have separate ones) while the coffee is brewing. I make sure to spend some quality time with them before I leave. When I get home, Juno is always so excited to see me and the cats run up to me too! I’m just as excited to see them as they are to see me… I am not offering Boarding services right now because my dog and cats do not get along with other animals. I do offer house sitting services, where I start off by greeting the animals and gaining their trust. This is always the first thing I do when entering your house. I then go to the kitchen where the instructions to feed and walk them usually are. If they are not in the kitchen I usually double check my Rover app to see if there are instructions there. I make sure to close all of the blinds in the house and, lock every door if I ever need to leave during the house sitting duration.

About: Hi I’m Carlie! I have had animals my entire life, and dogs have always held a special place in my heart. My family has rescued 3 over the years and I recently rescued my own precious baby Avalon! (Although she definitely rescued me!) I have tons of experience caring for animals and it is something I’m very passionate about! I love taking my dogs to the dog park! I love going on hikes and walks with them as well! There’s also a box full of tennis balls I have stored for all the fetch we could ever play! :) I have great knowledge on feeding and caring for dogs in whatever way you may need! I’m so excited you’re reading this and I can’t wait to meet your furry babies! ❤️ I am currently offering my services from 9am until around 4pm each day! I am open to working around schedules as well if that is needed! I promise to always abide and respect all the rules and wishes you may have for your pets while in my care! I would never put your babies in harms way!
About: I’ve pet sat since age 10, having 3 dogs of my own growing up. I have pet sit for neighbors, friends, and family through the years Im a student, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m a student athlete at IU, and an animal behavior major. Feel free to reach out about scheduling! I make sure to follow your specific instructions carefully such as potty breaks when needed, feeding times, play time, locking up the crates(if applicable), etc
About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).
About: I grew up with my own pets. I worked for a family member in high school, helping her in her grooming and kennel facility. Before I moved to the Indy area I worked at a dog daycare facility. I worked with dogs individually and in group settings. I did some behavioral training with these dogs and my own! I can evaluate dog emotions and behaviors and work with owners on any concerns that they may have I currently work full time and I’m off Sundays and Wednesdays. I’m available most days after 2 pm and no later than 6:30 pm. Not available Sundays during the day due to church. My saying is that mental stimulation is better than physical. At my home I always leave soothing music on for my dogs and leave them a toy or treat to play with. It helps reduce anxiety and lets them have their calm time.

“Ana was a great host for our dog’s 2 night, 3 day stay!! Very communicative and flexible with our dog’s needs! Her background in fostering dogs definitely shows! Will highly recommend her to anyone!”
“We recently moved to the area and I was so afraid we wouldn’t find a sitter that we liked and trusted as much as we did our sitter back home but no more worries! Rachel and her family took wonderful care of our big baby while we were gone on vacation and we’ve had to make several adjustments with times and haven’t had any problems. I was worried we wouldn’t make it home due to the snowstorm but Rachel assured me Cheeto would be safe, warm and loved until we made it home and was even ok with a late night pickup when we were finally home. Thank you so much Rachel!”
“I’m so thankful for Victoria! My dog, Penny, was so happy and well taken care of. She sent me regular updates and I was really at peace knowing things were going well. If she’s available, I will definitely use Victoria again.”
“Susan provided the perfect environment for my senior beagle. She and her husband are retired so they’re able to be with your pet 24 /7 . Bess received lots of ear and belly rubs and love sleeping by their fireplace.There are no small children running around and she has a nice fenced in backyard. my beagle thoroughly enjoyed herself and I don’t think she really wanted to come home.”
“Nora is great. Kia is an older dog and set in her ways. Nora was so patient with her and took top notch care of her. I got daily updates. Kia wouldn’t eat for the first couple of days and Nora found a solution to get her to eat. Your dog is in good hands with Nora.”

Willow was obviously very happy in the videos and photos throughout the stay. We would highly recommend Rubal's AMAZING services to anyone seeking a reliable and caring individual. It was a truly wonderful experience for boTH!”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
“We rebooked with Joshua and Kate because Gus had such a great experience the first time. They are wonderful and were very flexible with last minute pickup time changes. We know Gus was cared for and loved in the best way!”
“Victoria is very nice and I really appreciated that she met me and our pup prior to the date of the stay. She sent me plenty of photos and I could tell that our pup was made to feel like she was "home". No complaints at all about the services we received!”
“Super understanding when our elderly boy was just too anxious to be away from us for a night. Debbie’s home is spacious, with lots of yard space for exercise. Their sweet and lovable pup Chesney was ready to greet and befriend both of us upon arrival. With her experience and sensitivity, your pet will be safe and well-cared for in Debbie’s capable hands.”
“Great communication! They gave us an update and pictures every other day or so on how our pup was doing. Our dog seemed very comfortable staying with them. Happy customer!”
“We left our two pups with Nichole for almost 3 weeks when we needed to go on a business trip. It was the longest we have ever left our pups with anyone and we were nervous. We set up a greet and meet and were able to meet Nichole and see her home and set up. She made us feel comfortable and showed how knowledgeable she was about frenchies and pup care overall. Our two dogs had a great time. Nichole provided pictures and videos and kept us updated on how Marshie and Dixie were doing the whole time. Very happy overall with the experience and will definitely look at having our pups stay with them again.”
“Celsei was amazing and wonderful and took great care of my two doggies on short notice for a weekend. They were in the comfort of a home with a yard to play in rather than being in a kennel which I know contributed to the great time they had. When I brought them home, they acted like they had been on their own vacation and were relaxed, yet energetic to be home. Thank you Celsei for taking such good care of them.”
“Tracy is absolutely wonderful and we love knowing that our pup, CC, is very well cared for when we are away. CC gets tons of play time and she is snuggled too. We love all of the pictures and videos of her running and having fun. Thank you to Tracy for being such a great caretaker!”
“My fur baby had a wonderful stay with Diandra! She is extremely responsive when communicating on Rover and a true dog whisperer. My dog felt comfortable and made himself at home during his stay. She sent me lots of cute pictures and videos. Her two dogs are great and played so well with my little baby. Thank you so much Diandra!”
“Alisa was fantastic with Roxi, our Mini Australian Shepherd! Roxi can sometimes be a little unsure in new situations, but from the moment we walked in, she clearly felt comfortable. We received several texts and photos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was great and it was obvious Roxi was getting lots of attention and care. We would absolutely trust her to watch Roxi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter who can handle high energy dogs!”
